the wicked child was...

Spoiler:

a disgruntled farmer

The Irish forces declared the Irish Republic to be born. The revolution had officially begun.

i think in a "theme" game of this size you always suspect there are few other factions. The way she mentioned British spies and Unionist I figued we'd see some Unionist popping up as yellows or something.

I'm thinking not the british... seeing as they offed him and whatnot

He wasn't red and he wasn't green. I'm just thinking that some knowledge of the role of these "disgruntled" farmers during the revolution would allow us to know what this purple faction is....they could be completely independent and be against both the british and the revolution.

Even not knowing all that, it's been known that if you're not blue or green, you're of the others. I can't remember any game where an independent faction wasn't given the instructions that all they had to do was survive.

This is true to an extent, though there have been games where another color had the chance to join the greens/blues under the right circumstances.

That's what i'm thinking. i don't want us all to just assume purple is good and let someone claim purple when being voted off and then get pulled out of the suspicion pool.
